That's what I'm going to do. Whenever I try to fix anything I have ten
thumbs and screw it up, so I've stopped trying. My chrome MX (I also have a
gorgeous black MX), my first SLR bought in the early 1980's, needs to have
the foam replaced, which I would never try on my own. I might as well pay
someone who knows what they're doing to do both then be more careful when
changing lenses. The MX is still a great camera, but I never shoot film
anymore. Are most of you shooting digital only?
After it's fixed I may get a K100D that's available in mint condition at
what I think is a great price. What do you folks think would be a fair price
for one? Sometimes I have digital images made into 4X6 or 5X7 prints to show
to others, and I think six megapixels is plenty good enough for that. Due
to the sensor problem and wanting something inbetween a small point and
shoot and an SLR I bought a superzoom; it's not a Pentax and I'm very happy
with it. I've been disturbed by the consistently poor reviews recent Pentax
gear has been getting. I realize that saying that could open Pandora's box.
Thanks to all for your help.

There are numerous sensor cleaning devices on the market. I'm lazy (and
not a little bit clumsy) - I take my cameras to a KNOWN GOOD service
tech and have the sensor cleaned when I need it done.
